Lobster is less expensive than chicken in Maine this year due to a bountiful harvest, so if you're looking for an excuse to get over to New England this summer, that's your ticket. If lobster isn't your style, you can try the delicious Maine steamer, or 24 different flavors of saltwater taffy. Home of Palace Playground, the beachfront amusement park, Old Orchard is the perfect place to get away.
